GMO biosafety research in China.
Over the years, genetically modified organism (GMO) development and regulation in China have regularly attracted international attention. In the early 1990s, China became the first country to commercialize a genetically modified (GM) crop with planting of a virus-resistant transgenic tobacco variety on a relatively large scale, while other parts of the world were debating about the risks of GMO...
متن کاملBiosafety Issues in Laboratory Research
Dioxins is a compound family among persistent organic pollutants toxics produced by industrial wastes. 2,3,7,8-Tetrachlorodibenzo -p-dioxin (TCDD) is a typical representative of dioxins, which not only exhibits systemic carcinogenicity, teratogenicity, immunotoxicity, hepatotoxicity, endocrine disruption and waste syndrome to humans, but also has effects on physiology and pathology of human ski...
متن کاملChallenges and opportunities in environmental biosafety research.
Since the first commercial release of genetically modified (GM, also referred to as genetically engineered, GE) crops in the middle of 1990s, the research and development of transgenic biotechnology has made dramatic progress. To date, global cultivation area of GM crops has exceeded 120 million hectares (James, 2009) with extensive cultivation of herbicide-tolerant soybean and canola, insect-r...
متن کاملNovel GMO-Based Vaccines against Tuberculosis: State of the Art and Biosafety Considerations
Novel efficient vaccines are needed to control tuberculosis (TB), a major cause of morbidity and mortality worldwide. Several TB vaccine candidates are currently in clinical and preclinical development. They fall into two categories, the one of candidates designed as a replacement of the Bacille Calmette Guérin (BCG) to be administered to infants and the one of sub-unit vaccines designed as boo...
